If In Life
To enjoy what we have if is joy,
Waiting for what we’ve not too is joy.
One plus one makes two, tells a maths rule,
Minus one makes lonely, says life’s school.
In life’s play, I know one close that came,
What if that same someone plays foul game?
In life if everyone’s not found friendly,
Where you find a sea not so salty?
If life’s spent in endless search of joys,
We forget to grow past boyhood toys.
